Syresham Gardens, Haywards Heath, RH16

This quirky and beautifully individual duplex apartment offers 926sqft of stylish accommodation within The Priory - an iconic Grade II listed building in the heart of Haywards Heath. Originally built in 1896 to house a community of nuns from Bruges, this historic property was sympathetically converted in 2020 to create a collection of luxury apartments, blending timeless architecture with contemporary living.

Occupying the top two floors, this exceptional home enjoys both peace and privacy, with no neighbours above. The accommodation is wonderfully versatile, offering up to three bedrooms and combining generous proportions with a striking split-level layout and highquality modern finishes.

The impressive open-plan kitchen and family room extends to 23ft, creating the ideal social space for entertaining or relaxing. The sleek, high-spec kitchen features quartz worktops, handleless cabinetry, and integrated appliances, while oak flooring and plantation shutters add a touch of refinement. Large windows flood the room with natural light. Across the hallway, a 17ft sitting room provides a flexible second living space or an optional third double bedroom, depending on your needs. A stylishly appointed bathroom completes this level, featuring a contemporary suite with overhead drench shower.

A turned staircase leads to the upper floor, where you’ll find two further bedrooms. The larger of the two enjoys a beautiful, vaulted ceiling with wood panelled fitted wardrobes, drawers and fitted window seat. While the second bedroom benefits from quality fitted wardrobes and a pull out workstation/dressing table and looks over the central courtyard. This floor could easily be arranged as a luxurious master suite with a dressing room if desired.

Modern comforts include a secure video entry system, electric heating, and high-performance glazing, ensuring convenience and peace of mind. Perfect for a downsizer seeking something unique or someone looking for an elegant UK base, this remarkable apartment combines history, character, and contemporary style in one of Haywards Heath’s most distinctive landmark buildings.
